Get to Know Tyler Newborn, ISA, LEED 

What do you do at ABB?

Landscape Designer and Arborist

​

What’s one project you’re working/worked on that you’re excited about?

Bushwick Inlet Park – There is a lot of change happening in this neighborhood and a lot of opportunity to improve the park and waterfront.

​

What kind of music do you like to listen to while you're designing?

I'm normally listening to either Doc Watson radio or French hip-hop.

​

What helps you stay focused?

The built project! There’s nothing like seeing an idea you once doodled be brought to life and enjoyed by others.

​

What’s your favorite design resource to reference and why?

I like scrolling through #graffiti on Instagram. Graffiti culture and urban design do not exist without each other. I’m inspired by the uninhibited nature of the art and seeing spaces with a different perspective is always enlightening.

​

Do you have any Netflix recommendations for us?

Mad Men… if anyone still hasn’t watched it.
